Joe has the rep utation of being a very good negro, but Sunday ho did not feel well, and took on just onotigh corn Juice to make him want to cuss and fight. His animosity was par ticularly excited against the policeman who attempted to stop a quarrel, and as the policeman was endeavoring to take Joe In, Joe endeavored to take In the po ! lice. The police got the liest of him to ' such an extent that lie was landed In tin l guard-house, to await the above $5 line, I .Too will allow the city $5 on Saturday, When hi“ employers pay him Ills wages. Tlr II ► Ordinance. Our remarks, a few days since, on the hog ordinance, and asking a repeal or sus pension of It for the corning year, seems to have met with general favor among those originally tn favor of the hog ordi nance. Those people who have heretofore raised their own meat In the eityof course are in favor of the repeal. There is a large class of poor people who have thanked us for bringing It to the notice of the Coun cil. We hope Council will heed this re quest of the poor of our city, and at least give them a chance, for the next year, to raise moat to help support them and their dependent families. Council meets to night, and then wo hope to see an ordi nance suspending the law passed, and passed unanimously. (>ur poor need help, and in this way you can give It to them, even If it ho at the expense of the city-like apiiearanco of our city. As the law now stands, it is only executed spasmodically, and hogs are on the street most of the time. Give everybody u chance. Give the poor a chance to help themselves, and you will not becullod upon for aid so often. • A PAR 11.

Yesterday we witnessed a lively foot race between Marshal Robinson and a ne gro namod Henry Wright. The race was made up at short notice, and the time was so short that no pools were sold. It appears that llonry Wright was re cently convicted of burglary in breaking in and entering the house of Mr. Davis, near Green Hill, Stewart county, in last April, Ho broke jail soon thereafter, and since then has been at largo. Yesterday the Sheriff of Stewart county was in the city and recognized Henry and Henry, it seems, recognized the Sheriff about the same time, and concluded it would be bet-! tor to go across the river for a few days, j It seems ho was in a hurry, fur he struck a trot, making for the lower bridge. The Sheriff called to Marshal Robinson, who was on the opposite side of the street, to “head him!” The race started from Watt I A Walker's corner. The negro took the lead and kept the inside track until they neared the bridge, when Marshal Robin son took the polo and retained it until he mot a man with a shot-gun. Ho called for the gun and pulled It upon the flying Hen ry and ordered a halt. Henry consented to halt, and was recaptured and turned over to the Sheriff. Columbus is a very bad place for thieves and cut-throats. Noithor class receive much encouragement horo, though they are generally discovered and requested to remain at the county’s expense until some kind friends or relatives aro hoard from, to toll what they know about thorn. The Memorial Concert. Everybody was so well pleased with the exhibition of the concert of the amateurs last night, that a number have suggested a trip to Montgomery during the Christ mas holidays. (Vo tidnk it would be the means of making money for the monu ment. Wo are sure the troupe would be well patronized in Montgomery, and duly appreciated. The Western Railroad would doubtless give the party special rates, and | tho troupe need not bo absent but one day and night from home. It would prove an j enjoyable trip. The Montgomerlans have j an amateur troupe of their own, but we' don't think they could surpass the memo- i rial troupe. Tho singing of Miss Cook and Mrs. Shipp alone is equal to anything we evor saw in amateur entertainments. Everybody would be glad if Sirs. Tyng and Manager Jordan would give a benefit in Montgomery. l'hiiirc4l III* M imi. A strapping big stranger entered a store on Woodward avenue yesterday, and lean ing too heavily on the show-case broke one of the panes of glass. ‘That will cost you two dollars,” said the proprietor. “Havn’tgot the money,” replied the stranger. “Well, you can’t go out of the store un til you pay for tlmt glass," said the I storekeeper In a determined voice. “I’m sorry, but I’m willing to be licked, | if that will do you any good,” replied the; stranger, rapidly getting out of two coats and a vest and showing arms like joints of stovepipe. ‘‘Oh, I guess it was purely accidental, ’’1 said tho shop-keeper in an altered voice, j as he got behind the counter in a hurry,! “and you needn’t mind about waiting around here any longer. Here’s a earl ticket it you are going up the avenue. Free Press. Bridal Presents of Solid Silver and Silver-Plated Ware. Anew assortment just received at V ITTICH A Kinskl’B. Call at J. J.

Wo scarcely know how to go about de scribing uuch’an entertainment as we saw last night at tho Perry House, under the management of tho ladles of tho Memorial Association. Everything was on a grand | scalo and managed to perfection. The ■ spacious dining-room of tho Porry House was used for tho occasion. Every pillar and post was elegantly decorated, while the walls wore honored with tho portraits of tho most illustrious of Georgia’s dead. The ladles of Columbus have been un tiring in their efforts to make the festival a success, and from I lie crowd present last, night wo feel sure their work will he re warded with success. THE TABLES were presided over by tho different ladles of Columbus who had identified them selves with this movement. Tho llrst bevy of beauty that met your eye as you entered the hall was t,ho lemonade well, under the care of Misses Henning. Lock hart and Wilkins. Tills was the fount at which every thirst was quenched except that of requited love. THE HEMMES TABLE was next on the right-hand side. At this table three of the most handsome married ladies in tho city presided Mrs. Garrard, Mrs. Bruce, and Mrs. Williams-assisted by the fascinating and graceful Miss Swift. They sold every article, from a pin-cush ion to a pair of vases, and their table was thronged during the entire evening. The portrait of Col. John A. Jones was sus pended above this table. STONEWALL JACKSON was the next table, arid there everything that could tempt tho appetite was found. Cakes and sweetmeats in any quantity, and dispensed by fair hands, found a ready sale. Mrs. (V. It. Bedell, Mrs. Mort Williams, and Miss Wall did the honors. Over the table was written in letters com bining the Confederate colors, “Stonewall Jackson." Tho photographs of Capt. Jas. Ware and Capt. Gllttinger were hung un der Stonewall Jackson's, and were appro priately draped. LADY FRANKLIN coffee table was next reached, and there was found the oldest surviving member of the Memorial Association, Mrs. Robert A. Ware, doing her part in furtherance of the cause she wept for, prayed for, and hoped for. Mrs. Guerry and Miss Martin assisted In the management of this table. THE OYSTER TABLE was just In front, and at the post of love and duty we found Mrs. D. I’. Ellis, Mrs. Dr. Robinson and Mrs. Warner. Those latlios know how to cook oysters, and how to serve them, and exerted themselves to aid in building a monument to tho dead heroes. Immediately In roar of tins table was a splendid MEAT TABLE, presided over by M is. M. J. ('rawford, Mrs. Perry, Mrs. 15. IT. Crawford, Mrs. W. L. Clark, Mrs. A. M. Allen and Mrs. Me- Miobaol. The choicest delicacies of the season were found on their table, and in every way the most fastidious appetite could be gratified. The ladies had their table beautifully decorated with appropri ate pictures and wreaths. In making the circuit of the hall, the next table was one bearing the device, on a flag floating from the centre, “KSIICOL,” which Interpreted means “the land of fruit." It was the land of fruit, but with ! the nicest custards and jellies added that I we ever saw. Mrs. G. W. Woodruff, Mrs. [ F. M. Jeter, Mrs. M. Joseph, Mrs. Howard and the Misses Howard were there, ready to serve you and t heir country. It was a popular resort. THE DOLL HOUSE was a gem in itself, and was literally tilled with dolls. Mrs. Hanserd, assisted by Miss Mamie lipping, had charge of tho tent, and sold dolls by tho wholesale. THE GEORGIA TABLE comprised several departments, consist ing of all kinds of meats, cakes, flowers ami fancy articles. Above tho table was hung a portrait of Col. Charles J. AVil iiams, who sacrificed his life In the cause of liberty. This was considered by many tho handsomest tablo in tho house. The table and the surroundings were beauti fully adorned with wreaths and ever greens. Behind tho table stood a commit tee of the best and prettiest women of Co lumbus Mrs. W. 11. Young, Mrs. Reese Crawford, Mrs. A. C. Young, Mrs. A. G. Redd, Misses Young, Green, Eidgway and Thom, were attendants. In tho centre of tho table .was a representation of the coat of arms of Georgia, made of candy. THE LADY WASHINGTON TABLE was under tho charge of the Wynnton ladies, most of whom were dressed in cos tume mid shone to advantage. We no ticed among those present Mrs. G. E. Thomas, Mrs. Gen. Phillips, Mrs. Col. Thornton, Mrs. K. E. Yonge, Misses Shep herd, Walker, Grimes,and Banks. Every delicacy that could be suggested was on this table, and dispensed by tho fairest of hands. R. E. LEE TABLE was tho next, and there Mrs. Curtis, Airs. Wells, Airs. Tillman, anil Misses Barnard and Wilkins were assigned. Their table presented a beautiful appearance, and was well patronized by those that wanted nice cake and sweetmeats. THE FISH POND was a novel invention, and a half dozen captivating young misses stood there in sisting you should iish at ten Cents a bait, We got baited and threw in our line and drew out well, wo won’t say wlnit. THE COLQUITT TABLE ! was noxt to the Lee table. Every kind of | fancy article was there held for salo by | Airs. Beach, Mrs. Brooks, lira. Word, and j Misses Brooks and Mary Williams. Every thing was there for sale, and from the crowd that hung around it, we thought ! sales were good. Tho best cigars in the i house were offered by the fairest hands, and tho tender, beseeching look to buy ! cigars was irresistible. The next was a FANCY TABLE, under the charge of Misses Wilkerson and McDaniel. Their table was arranged with taste, and they seemed to make good sales. They had a nice collection of arti cles, and were in earnest in selling them to the best advantage for tho monument. THE POST OFFICE. Miss Clayton and the Alisses Wise held sway at the post office, and a letter was ready for any address there was called for. Many touching epistles were receiv ed, and many good hits made. This de partment, was a success, and not being appointed by Grant, of course no frauds were detected. THE RAFFLE. Everybody was called to the raffling ta ble. under tho charge of Mrs. Green and Mrs. T.cc, They had a splendid collection I of articles, and were rapidly disposing of them by raffle. Tho chances were good ! that all tho chances would be taken. Mrs. Carter, President, and Miss Wil j Hams, Secretary, wore present, attending . to their respective duties. TONIGHT. ; To-night the testlval continues. Re member the vote for the most popular j military company progresses, and that the elegant wreath made by Mrs. Martin !is the prize. Voting was spirited last night. Everybody ought to go out to night and do their host for the cause. We have only given a hurried sketch of what can be seen there, and of course have omitted the names of some ladies present. To-morrow wo will try and And out every lady interested and do them justice. The late hour at which we write precludes a further notice of this elegant entertain ment. IClver News.

Tho Julia leaves to-day at 10 o’clock. I'litcrprUt;, A go-ahead railroad official yesterday caught n glimpse of some men whom he thought were bound for Texas. They had gotten a block away before he thought of it, when he overtook them, and w ith’ his accustomed modesty asked if they wore bound for the West. They replied in the negative, when he asked if they knew anybody that wanted to go, and if they should, lie wanted them to call on him for tickets. Enterprise we call it. liitf Foot. A good deal has been said about the ar rival of the “Big Foot,” and a groat num ber of speculations have been made in re gard to her arrival. Lately she has been located in Columbus as hung to a certain gentlemen. Yesterday we received poisttve informa tion thabshe had arrived ut Chattahoo chee, Fla., and would be in Eufaula to-day.

A young merchant of Columbus was un- j able to attend the festival last night for | tho want of funds. Late yesterday a nov el idea occurred to him, and he sold his coat in order t hat he might aid the festi val. Such men deserve success, for their hearts are in the right place. . 1C a til cm. ; The order of tho day and night is a tur | key rafilo.

Yesterday everything seemed live ly. The streets were crowded with wagons, and the sidewalks with men, women and children. Eighteen hundred and seventy-six is leap year, and if Susan B.

Among ottiers, there was a lady friend of ours who was sallow and sickly until she was twenty-six years old, when she was married. Her husband lived two years and died. She continued in bad health; ill fact, she lias never been what a woman ought to be. A few months after the death of her husband she saw your advertisement, and came to our store and bought a bottle of your Regula tor from us, and took it according to di rections. It lias cured her sound and well, brought her regular monthly peri ods on, and to-day she is a hearty, bloom ing widow—witii tbe use of but two bot th-s of your Regulator, costing her only three dollars, when she had tried several physicians and spent a great deal of money without anv benetlt. Wishing you great success with your valuable reme dies, we. are, respectfully yours, etc., \Y.
